Celiac disease (Celiac disease, CD) is a kind of autoimmune bowel disease caused by dietary gluten in genetically susceptible individuals, also known as non-tropical inflammatory fatty diarrhea (Non-tropical sprue), wheat gum bowel disease (Glutenenteropathy), idiopathic fatty diarrhea (Idiopathicsteatonhea), gluten mainly exists in wheat and other crops, including rye, barley, oats, etc. All foods produced and processed from these cereals, such as bread, cakes, biscuits, and beers, contain gluten. The components of gluten include gluten (glutenin) and alcohol-soluble gluten (alcohol-soluble protein, prolamine). Immune response, born in the small intestine, has increased significantly in the past five decades, especially in the last decade, but overall, it remains an underestimated problem in women's health.
